    In my head I always want to go to these places but when i get there I just want to go home. I would like to see these places etheraly without my body being there to be inconvenienced by anything outside my safe concrete containment zone.

      Imo I’ve definitely felt the same way. The way I combated it was spending less time on screens in general. It feels like your brain is rewired to appreciate the real world more.

      It's loud, it's misty, I'm kinda cold but it's too hot in the sun, the water is too cold to go in, there's bugs crawling on me when I sit on a rock, the only bathroom is a drop toilet, I'm sweaty and gritty and tired and now it's an hour drive home after this two hour hike back to the car.

      The best way around this is to stay at a base camp with amenities nearby. Camp 4 in Yosemite was perfect for this

    Unironically how I feel whenever I'm forced to "travel" to another country for "vacation" or go hiking at some "scenic" mountain.

      You can masturbate in all those locations, and eventually the state will require you stay inside your new room for years

      That reminds me of a place I hiked to in Hawaii back when I lived there. I remember the waterfall landed on a lot of rocks before filtering down into the lake, caught a taste of it and it was better than any bottled water I've ever had. 10/10 highly recommend.
